Charlie grinned and wrapped his arms around her, pulling her to him and pressing the softness of her full busoms against his chest. “Tha knows where to find me lass”.
“Aye”, Annie smiled sarcastically, her green eyes flashing. “Tucked up in bed with yer wife. When tha should be tucked up in bed with me”.
Charlie threw back his head and let out a deep gutteral laugh. “After a night with thee I need to sleep for a week. At least with Mary tha knows tha’ll get plenty of that”.
Annie pulled back from his embrace, her smile falling away. “Tha managed to keep awake long enough to get her pregnant”.
Fixing her with concilliatory blue eyes, Charlie dropped his voice. “Annie…Tha knows she’s got nothing on thee. Tha’s more woman than she is and more of a wife than she’ll ever be”. Cupping his hand under her chin he pulled her lips to his.
